How many nights a week do you watch Storm Stories?
« on: March 10, 2008, 02:20:28 PM »
I was just looking at the Storm Stories site on weather.com, and they're running a quite amusing poll asking "How many nights a week do you watch Storm Stories?"

As soon as I saw that, I chuckled, because first off, Storm Stories doesn't run at night anymore, secondly, after viewing the results, the majority of voters (38%) chose None. One and Three are nearly tied with 18%, and Five and Seven are slightly lesser amounts (with 8% and 16%, respectively).

If the majority of people who visit the site don't watch the show, I believe it's safe to say TWC should cancel it.  :whistling: It'd be really nice to have the 2:00 PM ET hour of programming back.

Nobody watches it because it's on a time that people won't be able to see it. If they move it back to evenings, maybe ratings would go up.

Well, they're still going to syndicate it to see if they can generate interest, but if there isn't interest after that, we might see it gone for good.

I hope it's gone for good. I used to like the earler shows but the recent ones have gone downhill

I think Storm Stories was a successful show, and if it wasn't, TWC wasted a lot of money one making new ones.  But, I think is all just started getting old, and similar stories played over and over again.

That poll is EXTREMELY old though :P  I remember taking that a long time ago.  And besides, it isn't accurate, because you can go right back and vote again

Storm Stories isn't that bad of a show. It's definitely a lot better than Boring Conditions and CrappyVentures among their other newer shows.

That's why those shows don't show 7 days a week, and never have new shows

Btw..lets call them by the real name..those names are kind of lame  :whistling:  The only made up name that works is Storm Bories :P

I used to like the earlier episodes of SS. The newer episodes stunk. Plus most of them are about Hurricane Latrina

That's Katrina.  :whistling:

Anyway, I didn't mind SS too much until they gave it more spinoffs than Law & Order.  :rolleyes:

Well first off, I haven't seen Storm Storied (period) since June, so I was not aware that they had a new narrator or anything like that.

Second, I don't watch it at all (obviously).

Third, I was at Costco the other day and saw the Storm Storie collector DVD's. Only $13. :rofl2:
